Registration

  • This is a registered program
  • To register call 625-8463 or register online through your Perfect Mind account.
  • Spaces are limited. If the site is full, please add your child to the waitlist.
  • We do have an attendance management policy in place, to help open spaces up. Information will be sent to you after registration.

Things to know

  • NRP is nut safe.
  • A snack is provided each day.
  • Indoor shoes are required.  Participants will not be able to return to their classroom after the dismissal bell and need to bring their indoor shoes with them.
  • Parent/Guardian and/or Alternate Contact MUST be available to promptly pick up participants during program hours as required.
  • Safe Arrival - if a child will be absent, parents/guardians need to phone/text the site specialist prior to 3pm on the day of the absence.  If a participant is not signed in 10 minutes after the dismissal bell then Safe Arrival Procedures will be implemented which include contacting the police.
  • Safe Departure - participants in grades SK-3 must be picked up by a parent/guardian or sibling that is at least in grade 4, or another approved person that is 13 years or older.
  • If your child has a disability, we welcome them to come with a PSW or support can be provided through Junior Inclusion Services.
